    I think at least 60% of people would beg to differ.

    Also, where do your data from? We’re seeing the impacts right now and although we still have a chance of minimising the impact we’re still emitting GHG at dangerous rates.

      As a climate activist, my data comes largely from the NOAA/EPA as well as independent think-tanks.

      The poster you’re responding to is correct.

          Pretty sure as a literal climate lobbyist, I know more about this than you

              I did not say I am in a think tank. I said we use some think tank knowledge (generally for highly localized policy advocation), while relying on world standards for climate studies

              If you have an issue with the world’s chosen standards, perhaps write to the UN or your country’s UN ambassador.

          You don’t know what astroturfing is

              I’m not downplaying consequences, but being accurate about timelines.

              Most serious impacts of climate change that is already in-process won’t be felt til 2100+. We’ll hit 1.5C by 2030 and 2C by 2050, but that’s nowhere near catastrophic - that comes if we continue to not do things because the changes are slow.

              Not understanding the timeline is what feeds into climate denialism. It’s like their #1 talking point

              Next time you’re confused just ask for clarity.

                  You’re either dramatically overestimating the current situation or vastly underestimating how serious things will actually get
